Battlefield 6 (BF2042-2: Electric Boogaloo)

Is it REALLY that hard to lock weapons for each class?

the only people who like locked weapons are assaultsissies who want easier matchups against other classes

It is not, but it will be harder to sell skins. Also posted it again award.
Things that never happened, people want class-based SHOOTER to have its classes defined by the weapons they use

battlefield 2 already ruined the franchise with swappable weapons

If your main class can't use a weapon you might be less likely to buy a skin for that weapon

In a modern era shooter I don't think it really matters much, every weapon is automatic anyways.

Which class has the medkit? Cause will be playing it nearly exclusively

Just do what bf4 did and have generalist weapon classes and then roll based ones

This is what zoomalians hate to accept because they weren't there. I still vividly remember every medic was running with the G36E because it was so much better than all the default medic guns.

Assault has a spammable medpen and TWO primary weapons
Support has both ammo and medkit

They can take two primaries in exchange for both gadgets, and they're still working on the balance for it desu

Kek, assault chads stay winning

I'm in the play test Pre-Alpha thing. Going to download and get some yardwork done then give it a go later today

I got in too but I still don't have the game in my EA play library nor did I receive a key or anything of the sort.

What did he mean by this?

I don't get concern about two primaries. It's not like you're dual wielding, it's only as powerful as each primary would be in it's own slot, and other games had underbarrel shotguns and the like.

Are any BF games still worth playing?

Everyone is just going to use the AEK

Assault with two ARs and extended mags sounds pretty nutty. He gets the faster switch speed from his class trait too. So he can carry one that's better for range and one high rpm for shorter.

automatically spots enemies while aiming down the sights

Fuck this garbage. If you want to have 3D doritos AT LEAST make it so that people have to manually mark enemies and put a cooldown on it so it can't be spammed either.

BF4 had a similar attachment yet nobody used it, it's not gonna encourage them to equip snipers with Recon.

The autospot works with all weapons, but yeah it's ultimately just something to make shitters a little more useful. Any better player has spotting ingrained in his muscle memory.

Is it REALLY that hard to lock weapons for each class?

I don't get this board sometimes
First people screech that class-locked gear is trash and casual and restrictive, and that devs should let people make their own loadouts
And now that you actually can, suddenly it's not good anymore and it's better when weapons are class-locked

I don't get concern about two primaries

Literary how? What's there not to get, everyone will just carry a FAMAS in their pocket with no downsides, are you retarded?
This just makes CQC unwinnable for the other classes, whoever thought this shit up never played a FPS in their life

It's also possible to equip an AR + sniper rifle and you get to fully customize both primaries too, Warzone HDR meta-tier cancer.

I don't really give a fuck about the class. I'm more concerned that it looks the same as bf3/bf4, aka gameplay hyper casual.
I'd rather have mw2019 gameplay with vehicles and destruction.
But the worse part is the identity/atmosphere of the game.

this is going to be the most broken shit ever. everyones just going to run the most broken gun while healing themselves

I just want cool environment and atmosphere again, I don't care about shitty cawkdodo wannabe shit
BF1 was the last good battlefield.

BF1 was the last good battlefield

Jesus fucking Christ

Agree, there's some sort of divine light missing from bf5 2042 and even the new test that makes it so much less immersive

Not even trolling, the whole quality of the game take a nose dive after BF1, just compare the sound effect and environment quality.

inb4 muh nigger

They said BF1 was the last BF with OG team.

The last good battlefield was bad company 2.

sure, whatever.

you're trans btw

bf4 was the last good one, faggot

3 is better.

still no decent heli and jet leaks

What are you airfaggots doing?

They don't want to lock them because of battle royale. Shit's going to be ''Warzone: 6 years too late edition'' and die like Firestorm since every BR is already declining. It will also kill BF franchise alongside it. Next BF is going to be BF7(3+4) remasters since they are hellbent on following Halo's footsteps instead of making what people actually wants.

Personally, every class should have a standard gun (assault rifles) and then every class should have unique weapons (snipers on recon, lmg on engineer, smg on support) so that way classes still feel unique and you can still play your favorite class with the most common weapon type.

class signature traits

did they learn nothing from bf 2042 ?

BFV felt like shit at first but got a lot better, but BF1 is still the only BF I go back to fairly regularly. It was something special.

What's funny is that people who are designing weapons/classes are ex-compfags.

Shit's gonna be DOA.

I don't care about gameplay

Reason why BF will eventually die.

competitive Battlefield

He's making the classes for streamer faggots like Enders who wants to go 250-10 in a single match. Pretty sure Enders would run 2 SMGs with assault class if this shit stays like this.

Gameplay

turning Battlefield into Cawkdoshit.

You are a fucking retard and never play BF game before.
The game always about the map first and the way people fight in it, not special operatives shit.

see this thread

check email

didn't even get a notification for this, it was hidden in spam

fuck me

At this point I'd take even Battlefield V-2. 2042 is the only one I ever refunded.

Even your email provider thinks this game is a scam.

It's going to be BFV: 0.5 + 2042: 0.5

Worse than both. Has negatives of both.

I expect nothing less

I was hyped to play this but didnt anticipate it to be this rough/early. It feels like ass framepacing wise on a 7800x3d & 5080 @ 1440p. I hope this gets the time it needs in dev and wont be rushed out only cause GTA got delayed.

Look at bilibili, chinese leakers actually knows how to play these games.

It's crazy how much medic jumps around to different classes. I kind of get putting it on support since resupplying has gotten progressively more useless as the series progressed. Was there already a BF that had medic shit on support? I lost track.
I still think it should be its only class, but make reviving and healing extremely good.

Bad Company 2. Support was medic and assault was ammo pack guy.

Was there already a BF that had medic shit on support?

BC2 medic had LMGs instead of ARs.
The medic + support combo in BF6 is actually carried over from post-patch BF2042:
-Angel was specialized in ammo distribution, but could also carry a weak medical crate.
-Falck was specialized in healing, but could also carry a weak ammo crate.
Also the reason why resupplying got worse because DICE gave medic/support players the option to choose other gadgets over medkit/ammo crates or defibs.
It kinda started in BF3 where a new medic had to farm 4,000 XP in order to unlock defibs, or how you could choose the M320/M26 MASS over the medkit.
It got worse in BF4 and onwards where you could pick your loadout without carrying resupplies + medics had the small first aid kit which encouraged medic sweats to self heal unlike the big medkit that passively healed other players nearby its AO.

I used to play a lot of Desert Combat and Forgotten Hope back in the day and never felt like the classes were imbalanced

BF1 actually felt like Battlefield when we hadn't had vehicles bigger than a tank in BF games in YEARS. Since BF1942, in fact.

Yeah I mean at least in BF1 a medic can act like a medic from the get go.
